Purpose
The Tenth IASTED International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Applications (AIA 2010) will focus on bringing together researchers and practitioners working in the field of theory and practice of computer learning, pattern recognition, inductive and transductive inference, graphical models, neural networks, and neuroscience. These topics are now central in Artificial Intelligence, and communication between different groups of people involved in natural and computer learning has become crucial for further progress in AI.
Concurrent Conferences
AIA 2010 will be held in conjunction with the IASTED International Conferences on:
- Modelling, Identification and Control (MIC 2010)
- Parallel and Distributed Computing and Networks (PDCN 2010)
- Software Engineering (SE 2010)
- Signal Processing, Pattern Recognition and Applications (SPPRA 2010)
- Computer Graphics and Imaging (CGIM 2010)
- Biomedical Engineering (BioMed 2010)
Location
Innsbruck is nestled in the valley of the Inn River and tucked between the Austrian Alps and the Tuxer mountain range. It has twice hosted the Winter Olympics and is surrounded by the eight ski regions of the Olympic Ski World, including the Stubai Glacier, which offers skiing year round. Climbing the 14th century Stadtturm on Herzog Friedrich Strasse provides a stunning view of the town and the breathtaking scenery that surrounds it. Concerts at Ambras Castle provide listening pleasure in a beautiful renaissance setting. The sturdy medieval houses and sidewalk cafés of Old Town Innsbruck beckon you to sit for a while and watch people stroll by.
With its unique blend of historical, intellectual, and recreational pursuits, Innsbruck offers something for every visitor. AIA 2010 will be held at the world-famous Congress Innsbruck, located in the heart of the city, near the historical quarter.
